Description

  The present invention relates to a coil spring assembly used for a transmission damper for an automobile, a rebound spring for an automobile suspension, and the like.

  Conventionally, there exists a thing of patent document 1 as this kind of a coil spring assembly.

  This coil spring assembly includes a coil spring and a spring seat member. The spring seat member is attached to the end winding portion of the coil spring, and includes a seat body and a spring attachment member.

  The seat body has a seat portion and an attachment shaft portion. The seat portion is formed in a circular shape and is in contact with the end surface of the end winding portion of the coil spring. The attachment shaft portion protrudes from the center portion of the seat portion, and an annular engagement groove portion is formed on the outer periphery of the center portion in the axial direction.

  The spring mounting member has a hollow cylindrical shape and has an elastic locking portion that can be bent and deformed in the radial direction, and is attached to the seat body by engaging the elastic locking portion with the engaging groove portion of the mounting shaft portion. This engagement is performed by utilizing the deformation of the elastic locking portion radially outward.

  This spring mounting member is mounted in the end winding portion of the coil spring by utilizing the bending deformation of the elastic locking portion radially inward.

  Therefore, while improving the attachment property of the spring attachment member to the seat body, the attachment property to the coil spring can be improved, and dropping after the attachment can be prevented or reduced.

  However, since the spring seat member requires a spring mounting member in addition to the seat body, the number of parts is increased, and manufacturing and parts management become complicated, resulting in an increase in cost.

  On the other hand, Patent Document 2 describes a structure in which a single sheet member is engaged with an end portion of a coil spring.

  However, the structure is simply engaged, and no consideration is given to the proper engagement between the seat member and the coil spring, which causes excessive interference between the coil spring end portion and the seat member, thereby impairing durability. At the same time, there is a problem that a large gap is formed between the end winding portion and the seat member, and the mounting becomes unstable.

  Further, in order to prevent the seat member from coming off from the coil spring during use, it is necessary to take a sufficient allowance (press fit allowance) between the seat member and the end winding portion of the coil spring. When the member is engaged with the end portion of the coil spring by press-fitting, the end portion has a problem that the diameter of the end portion is greatly expanded to cause destruction.

Japanese Patent No. 4699273 JP 2007-64345 A

  The problem to be solved is not considered with respect to the proper engagement between the seat member and the coil spring, leading to excessive interference between the end portion of the coil spring and the seat member, and the durability is impaired. If the engagement allowance (press fit allowance) between the seat member and the coil spring end portion is sufficiently taken, when the seat member is engaged with the end portion of the coil spring by press fitting, the end turn portion is greatly expanded and deformed. It is a point that causes destruction.

  The present invention makes it possible to properly engage a coil spring sheet and a coil spring, which are seat members, to suppress excessive interference between the coil spring end winding portion and the coil spring sheet, and to improve durability. Therefore, a coil spring assembly comprising a coil spring having end winding portions at both ends of a main body portion and a coil spring sheet attached to the end winding portion, wherein the end winding portion is the main body. The coil spring seat has a transition portion that is formed to the first volume by being relatively reduced in diameter relative to the portion, and that gradually increases in diameter from the end winding portion to the main body portion between the main body portion and the end winding portion. Is a seat part in which the receiving surface comes into contact with the seat surface of the end winding part, a mounting shaft part protruding from the receiving surface of the seat part, and a diameter expansion for a press-fitting guide formed at the tip of the mounting shaft part And the attachment shaft portion is fitted with the end winding portion, and the seat surface of the end winding portion is In the free state in contact with the receiving surface of the part, there is a gap between the coil spring sheet and the enlarged diameter part of the coil spring sheet, or the axial length at which the gap is zero is set. The seating surface bypasses the enlarged diameter portion in a state where the seating surface is in contact with the receiving surface of the seating portion.

  The present invention relates to the coil spring assembly described above, in order to make it possible to suppress breakage of the end winding portion while sufficiently taking the engagement margin (press-fit allowance) between the seat member and the end winding portion of the coil spring. The coil spring includes a surface hardened layer having a depth of 50 μm and a white layer having a thickness of 3 μm or less from the surface.

  The mounting shaft portion according to the present invention is configured such that the end winding portion is fitted and the seat surface of the end winding portion is in contact with the receiving surface of the seat portion in a free state with the enlarged diameter portion of the coil spring seat. There is a gap between them or the axial length is set so that the gap is zero, and the transition portion bypasses the enlarged diameter portion in a state where the seat surface of the end winding portion is in contact with the receiving surface of the seat portion. .

  For this reason, the coil spring sheet is attached so that the mounting shaft part is fitted to the end winding part formed up to the first volume of the coil spring, and the coil spring sheet and the end winding part are securely fitted around each other. Can be made.

  In addition, since the transition portion of the coil spring bypasses the enlarged diameter portion in a state where the seat surface of the end winding portion is in contact with the receiving surface of the seat portion, the seat surface of the end winding portion and the receiving surface of the seat portion are surely secured. The coil spring sheet and the coil spring can be properly assembled.

  With this assembly, the durability of the coil spring assembly can be improved, and the gap between the end turn portion and the coil spring sheet can be suppressed, and the attachment can be stabilized.

  The present invention is the above coil spring assembly, wherein the coil spring includes a surface hardened layer having a depth of 50 μm and a white layer having a thickness of 3 μm or less from the surface.

  For this reason, the toughness of the coil spring can be increased, and the breakage of the end winding portion can be suppressed while taking a sufficient engagement allowance (press fitting allowance) between the seat member and the end winding portion of the coil spring.

  The purpose of properly engaging the coil spring sheet and the coil spring, which is a sheet member, to suppress excessive interference between the coil spring end winding portion and the coil spring sheet, and to improve durability, The coil spring has a transition portion that is formed to the first volume by reducing the diameter of the end winding relative to the main body, and gradually increases in diameter from the end winding to the main body between the main body and the end winding. The coil spring seat includes a seat portion where the receiving surface abuts against the seat surface of the end winding portion, a mounting shaft portion protruding from the receiving surface of the seat portion, and a press fit formed at the tip of the mounting shaft portion. The mounting shaft portion has an enlarged diameter portion of the coil spring seat in a free state in which the end winding portion is fitted and the seat surface of the end winding portion is in contact with the receiving surface of the seat portion. There is a gap with the part, or the axial length is set so that the gap is zero, and the transition part is a state in which the seat surface of the end winding part is in contact with the receiving surface of the seat part. In was achieved by bypassing the enlarged diameter portion.

  In addition, the coil spring has a depth of 50 μm for the purpose of making it possible to suppress the breakage of the end winding part while sufficiently taking the engagement allowance (press fitting allowance) between the seat member and the end winding part of the coil spring. This was realized by providing a hardened surface layer and a white layer of 3 μm or less from the surface.

[Coil spring]
1 is an exploded side view showing a coil spring and a coil spring sheet of a coil spring assembly according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

  The coil spring assembly 1 shown in FIG. 1 is used for, for example, a transmission damper for automobiles, a rebound spring around an automobile suspension, and the like.

  The coil spring assembly 1 includes a coil spring 3 and a coil spring seat 5.

  The material of the coil spring 3 is not particularly limited. For example, the coil spring 3 is formed of a high-strength material such as a silicon chrome steel oil temper wire (SWOSC) for a spring, and the diameter of the coil spring 3 is relatively reduced at both ends. It is formed up to the first roll and is provided with end turns 9 and 11. Between the main body portion 7 and the end winding portions 9 and 11, transition portions 13 and 15 that gradually increase in diameter from the end winding portions 9 and 11 to the main body portion 7 are provided.

  The coil spring 3 is provided with a surface layer having a depth of 50 μm and a white layer having a depth of 3 μm or less, preferably about 1.5 μm, from the surface by nitriding. The hardness of the white layer of the coil spring 3 is set to 750 Hv or more. By setting the surface layer, the white layer, and the hardness, toughness can be imparted so as not to break when the coil spring sheet 5 is press-fitted into the end turns 9 and 11.

  The seat surface polishing of the end winding portions 9 and 11 is performed in a range of 180 ° or more in the circumferential direction, for example, in a range of usually 270 ° (3/4 winding) from the tip to form the seat surfaces 9a and 11a. Therefore, the coil spring seat 5 described later can be stably abutted against and seated.

  The material of the coil spring sheet 5 is not particularly limited, but is obtained by subjecting an iron-based material to carbonitriding and quenching and tempering. For example, carbon steel for mechanical structure (S45C, S60C, etc.) , Header (for cold heading) carbon steel (SWCH) or the like.

  A pair of the coil spring sheets 5 is provided, for example, and attached to the both end wound portions 9 and 11. In FIG. 1, only the coil spring sheet 5 on the end winding part 9 side is shown and described. The attachment structure of the coil spring sheet on the end winding part 11 side is the same as that on the end winding part 9 side, and a description thereof will be omitted.

  The coil spring seat 5 includes a seat portion 17, a mounting shaft portion 19, and a diameter-expanded portion 21.

  The seat portion 17 is formed in a circular shape and has a receiving surface 17a. The outer diameter of the seat portion 17 is the same as or slightly larger or smaller than the outer diameter of the end winding portion 9. Thereby, the seat part 17 can be made to contact | abut to the end winding part 9 stably.

  The mounting shaft portion 19 is formed so as to protrude concentrically from the receiving surface 17 a of the seat portion 17, and a diameter-enlarged portion 21 is formed at the tip of the mounting shaft portion 19 for a press-fitting guide. The outer diameter of the enlarged diameter portion 21 is larger than the inner diameter of the end turn portion 9 and has a press-fitting allowance. A chamfer 21 a for press-fitting guide is formed on the outer periphery of the distal end of the enlarged diameter portion 21.

  The attachment shaft portion 19 is in contact with the enlarged diameter portion 21 of the coil spring seat 5 in a free state in which the end turn portion 9 is fitted and the seat surface 9a of the end turn portion 9 is in contact with the receiving surface 17a of the seat portion 17. The axial length is set such that there is a gap between them or the gap is zero.

  The end turn part 9 is fitted into the attachment shaft part 19 by the end turn part 9 formed by the first turn of the coil spring 3 around the whole attachment shaft part 19.

  The clearance between the end turn part 9 and the enlarged diameter part 21 may be such that the end turn part 9 does not come into contact with the enlarged diameter part 21 and need not be unnecessarily opened. The state in which the gap is zero means a state in which the end turn part 9 is in contact with the enlarged diameter part 21 but no stress acts on the end turn part 9.

  The transition portion 13 is set so as to bypass the enlarged diameter portion 21 in a state where the seat surface 9a of the end winding portion 9 is in contact with the receiving surface 17a of the seat portion 17 and the transition portion 13 does not contact the enlarged diameter portion 21. ing.

This detour is performed such that the transition portion 13 gradually expands the spiral from the end turn portion 9 to the main body portion 7. Even if the end turn part 9 moves relatively in the radial direction of the attachment shaft part 19 by this detour, the transition part 13 does not contact the enlarged diameter part 21 or the gap becomes zero.
[Press-fit allowance range and cracks]
FIG. 2 is an enlarged side view of the coil spring sheet, and FIG. 3 is a chart showing dimensions of each part of the coil spring sheet.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the axial length of the mounting shaft portion 19 of the coil spring sheet 5 is B dimension, the diameter of the mounting shaft portion 19 is H dimension, and the diameter of the enlarged diameter portion 21 is G dimension.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the G dimension of the example is larger than that of the third comparative example. Increasing the G dimension increases the press-fitting allowance. The G dimension is set to a larger value than when the inner diameter of the end turn 9 is the maximum when dimensional tolerance is expected. By increasing the press-fitting allowance, it is possible to prevent the coil spring seat 5 from dropping off from the end winding portion 9. In addition, 3 types of comparative examples show the dimension ratio of the sheet | seat for general coil springs.

  The coil spring 3 according to the embodiment of the present invention is a nitriding treatment that suppresses the breakage of the end wound portion 9 regardless of the material, even if the press-fitting allowance is increased, as compared with the coil spring of the comparative example subjected to the nitriding treatment. .

  That is, in the embodiment of the present invention, a surface layer having a depth of 50 μm and a white layer having a depth of 3 μm or less, preferably about 1.5 μm, were formed from the surface by nitriding as described above. The hardness of the white layer of the coil spring 3 is set to 750 Hv or more as described above. For this reason, high surface hardness and softness of the white layer were realized, and the coil spring 3 having high toughness could be obtained.

  On the other hand, in the comparative example, a surface layer of 80 to 120 μm and a white layer of 2.5 to 5 μm were formed by nitriding treatment, and the hardness was low but the toughness was low. There is a drawback that the end winding part is destroyed when the allowance increases.

  FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of the present invention and three types of comparative examples, (A) is a graph showing the change in hardness from the surface of the coil spring to the inside, and (B) is the hardness on the surface side of the coil spring. It is a graph which shows the change of. The vertical axis in FIG. 4 indicates the Vickers hardness (Hv), and the horizontal axis indicates the depth (mm) from the surface.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the coil spring 3 according to the embodiment of the present invention has a hardness slightly higher than 600 Hv at a depth of 50 μm from the surface, whereas the coil spring of the third comparative example is from the surface. Even at a depth of 60 μm, the hardness exceeds 600 Hv.

  Thus, the coil spring 3 of the embodiment of the present invention was set to be completely different in hardness and toughness from the three types of comparative examples. With this setting, the surface hardness and white layer softness of the comparative example were realized, and the coil spring 3 with high toughness was obtained.

  FIG. 5A is an explanatory diagram showing the occurrence of cracks with respect to shear stress, and FIG. 5B is an explanatory diagram showing an index of the number of cracks generated in (A). The effective part of the coil spring was cut into a ring shape and pulled from both sides as indicated by the white arrow in the figure, and the occurrence of cracks was confirmed. The vertical axis | shaft of FIG. 5 shows bending stress ((sigma) MPa).

  There were four types of cracks, three, two, one, and none, and the correspondence with bending stress was observed.

  As shown in FIG. 5, in this example, no crack was generated up to bending stress σ = 1800 MPa, and 2 cracks were generated at 2000 MPa, 1 crack was generated at 2200 MPa, and 3 cracks were generated at 2400 MPa.

  In Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3, all three cracks were generated at σ = 1800 MPa.

  From this result, it can be seen that the embodiment of the present invention can make the press-fitting allowance range larger than that of the comparative example.

  FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing generation of cracks with respect to bending stress in the relationship between the white layer and the surface layer. The vertical axis in FIG. 6 indicates the bending stress (MPa), and the horizontal axis indicates the depth (μm) of the surface layer. In this case, the occurrence of cracks was confirmed in the same manner as in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 6, when the surface layer was 50 μm and the white layer was approximately 3.0 μm or less, no crack was generated as indicated by ◯ even when σ = 1800 MPa or more. With this configuration of the surface layer of 50 μm and the white layer of approximately 3.0 μm or less, the occurrence of cracks can be prevented regardless of the material of the coil spring 3.

  On the other hand, even when the surface layer was 50 μm or less, cracks occurred in the white layer of 3.5 μm and the white layer of 5.2 μm even in the range of σ = 1800 MPa.

  Furthermore, in the range exceeding the white layer 50 μm, cracks occurred at σ = 1800 MPa or less in any of the white layers 2.5 to 5.7 μm.

  As is apparent from the results, a high toughness coil spring 3 having a high surface hardness and not easily cracking is obtained by combining a surface layer having a depth of 50 μm and a white layer having a thickness of 3 μm or less from the surface. I was able to.

  The press-fitting allowance range could be increased due to the characteristics of the coil spring 3 of the embodiment of the present invention which is not conventional.

  FIG. 7 is a graph showing the press-fitting allowance range. The horizontal axis represents the inner diameter of the coil spring, and the vertical axis represents the press-fitting allowance. The line segment U in FIG. 7 indicates the maximum press-fitting allowance and is a limit that the coil spring does not break, and the line segment L indicates the minimum press-fit allowance and is a limit that the coil spring sheet does not fall out of the coil spring during use.

  As shown in FIG. 7, in the comparative example, in consideration of breakage during press-fitting, selection is made from three press-fitting allowance ranges of a, b, and c according to the inner diameter of the coil spring. The reason why the three types a, b, and c are selected is that the coil spring of the comparative example has relatively low toughness and a small deformation allowance with respect to the inner diameter. In the comparative example, the coil spring sheet was removed from the coil spring even in the selection of the press-fitting allowance range.

  On the other hand, the coil spring 3 of the present example had much higher toughness than the comparative example, and was able to widen the press-fitting allowance range and to be d. This press-fitting allowance range d could include all of the press-fitting allowance ranges a, b, and c of the three comparative examples regardless of the inner diameter of the coil spring 3. Moreover, in the press-fitting allowance range d of the present embodiment, the coil spring sheet 5 did not come off from the coil spring 3.

[Proper installation]
Returning to FIGS. 2 and 3, the H dimension of the coil spring sheet 5 of this embodiment is set smaller than that of the comparative example. By making the inner diameter of the end turn 9 smaller than the minimum when a dimensional tolerance is expected, interference with the coil spring 3 is prevented, and the end turn 9 has a size that relieves stress.

  The dimension B is larger than that of the comparative example. This dimension is set so that the first volume of the coil spring 3 does not hit the enlarged diameter portion 21.

  That is, the coil spring sheet 5 according to the embodiment of the present invention is a comparative example 1 in the dimension B when the wire diameter of the coil spring is 22 mm, the coil seat winding outer diameter is 16.90 mm, and the coil seat winding inner diameter is 11.65 mm. .60mm and 2.49mm are set longer.

  By setting the dimension B, the coil spring seat 5 is attached to the end turn 9 as shown in FIG. FIG. 9 relates to a comparative example.

  8A and 8B show the attachment of the coil spring sheet of this embodiment, where FIG. 9A is a cross-sectional view of the main part, FIG. 8B is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the main part, and FIG. The attachment is shown, (A) is a cross-sectional view of the main part, (B) is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the main part.

  In the dimensions of the coil spring seats of the present embodiment and the comparative example of FIG. 3, the presence or absence of interference in FIGS. 8 and 9 depends on the difference in the axial length B of the mounting shaft portion.

  As shown in FIG. 8, in the embodiment of the present invention, the end winding portion 9 is fitted to the mounting shaft portion 19, and the seat surface 9 a of the end winding portion 9 abuts on the receiving surface 17 a of the seat portion 17. In the free length state, the first wire 9 c located on the tip 9 b has a gap with respect to the diameter-enlarged portion 21.

  While the transition portion 13 makes a transition so as to gradually increase the coil diameter with this gap, the diameter-expanded portion 21 does not make contact with the diameter-expanded portion 21 while bypassing the diameter-expanded portion 21. Is offset with a gap on the outer peripheral side of the body and transitions to the main body 7. In the embodiment, before reaching the second volume, the coil spring sheet 5 reaches the outside in the axial direction.

  Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention in FIG. 8, the B dimension (FIG. 2) of the coil spring sheet 5 is large, and the end turn part 9 and the transition part 13 do not interfere with the enlarged diameter part 21. For this reason, while being able to maintain durability of the coil spring assembly 1, the clearance gap between the seat surface 9a of the end winding part 9 and the receiving surface 17a of the coil spring sheet | seat 5 is suppressed, and attachment is stabilized. be able to.

  On the other hand, in the comparative example of FIG. 9, the B dimension (FIG. 2) of the coil spring sheet 5 </ b> A is relatively small, and the seat surface 9 a of the end winding portion 9 is in contact with the receiving surface 17 a of the seat portion 17. Thus, the first wire 9 c located on the tip 9 b of the coil spring 3 interferes with the enlarged diameter portion 21. Although it does not appear in the figure due to the cross section, the transition part reaching the second volume also interferes with the enlarged diameter part 21. In FIG. 9, the interference portions are illustrated in an overlapping manner.

  Such a structure of the comparative example causes unreasonable interference between the end winding portion 9 of the coil spring 3 and the coil spring seat 5A, impairing durability, and the seat surface 9a of the end winding portion 9 and the coil spring. A large gap is formed between the receiving surface 17a of the sheet 5A, and the mounting becomes unstable.

  10 and 11 relate to the attachment of the coil spring sheet of Example 2, (A) is a cross-sectional view of the main part, and (B) is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the XB part and XIB part of (A).

  As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the coil spring 3 </ b> A of the present embodiment uses a strand having an oval cross section instead of a strand having a circular cross section. In the coil spring 3A, the cross section of the coil inner diameter side 3Aa of the wire is constituted by, for example, a semi-elliptical part, and the cross section of the coil outer diameter side 3Ab is constituted by a semicircular part.

  In the example of FIG. 10, when the radius of curvature of the semicircular part on the coil outer diameter side 3Ab is made the same as that of the circular cross section of Example 1, the end turn part 9A (11A) and the enlarged part of the coil spring sheet 5 are used. It shows that the gap between the first and second members is larger than that in the first embodiment.

  Therefore, in the case of the present embodiment, the B dimension (FIG. 2) of the coil spring sheet 5 is reduced, and the space between the end turn part 9A (11A) and the enlarged diameter part 21 of the coil spring sheet 5 as shown in FIG. It is possible to reduce the gap.

  In addition, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be achieved.
